Prometheuis falling. An Iron Gods Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master Helikon

South

Ok, fyi that's not where I was intending on going. I had put myself on the map in front of the door I was opening. But lets run with it.

Aelden takes a step foward, hefting his sword and shield. "C'mon then ya bloody freaks! Come an' get some!"

Going Total Defense AC = 26 vs these robots.

Stungun: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 81d8 ⇒ 1 Aelden can feel some waves crashing against the wall right next to him but luckily... very luckily the blast misses him.

Gregory hustles forward, and takes a swing at the front robot. before it has a chance to act.

MW Greatsword: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16, for 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 4) + 6 = 12.

Vanya enters the room and stops next to the eastern bed. She shoots an arrow at the robot not in combat with Gregory.
Arrow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Aurora discharges a blast of energy from her staff.

jolt: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7

Startled by this new robot, only Gregory manages to connect... but he feels that the robot has a very thick "Hide".

Uran hustles forward to get in a good firing position so as not to be blocked by any of his companions.

Move to new location and makes sure he has a clear line of site to one of the robots

The Robot turns his front to you and charges Aelden, using his gun to shoot once more at Gregory.
Charge: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 191d4 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 Bashing itself at Aeldens shield, he nevertheless manges to zap Gregory.
STun: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 131d8 ⇒ 5 5 nonlethal, DC 11 Fort

I guess that it is targeting touch, because 13 is less than Gregory's AC?

Fort: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15.

Gregory attacks the robot that he targeted before.

MW Greatsword: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17, for 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 6) + 6 = 13.

The stungun is targeting touch
Again a dent int the robots armor
Make a Know engeneering check everyone who has the robot slayer trait

Another bolt of lightning erupts from Aurora's staff, blazing through the air towards the robot

jolt v touch: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 3 + 1 = 24
crit confirm v touch: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 3 + 1 = 24
electricity: 1d3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 + 1 = 6
crit damage: 1d3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 + 1 = 6

Crit-tastic! And max damage!!! *hand pumps the air* :D

KN: Eng: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Aelden moves to attack.

Att: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 1 = 12

"Stand still, blast you!"

AC 22 vs robots

Just for clarification, am I actually damaging it? If so, is all of the damage going through, or is some of it being absorbed by DR or hardness? Your talk of 'dents' has me a little worried ;-)

Vanya continues to shoot arrows at the robot. the one in the back where she has line of sight to

Shortbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

That was the know engeneering for. But dc was 5
To Aeldens practised eye the damage to the robot is more or less superficial, until the well blast electricity bolt makes it jumble.
In game terms hardness 10, but vulnerable to electricity

Now that his line of sight is clear, Uran balsts the robot with his rifle.

Attack-Ranged-touch: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1

The bullet cam only clonk against the robot and Uran and Vanya understand that they can not damage the robot. They have to learn to use other methods. Uran remembers some splinters he saw at the blast door and that he collected them. You have 5 bullets with the same abilities as adamantine.

Gregory continues to frantically hack at the robot.

MW Greatsword: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 = 18, for 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (6, 2) + 6 = 14 damage.

With a mighty cleave Gregory puts a major dent into the robot.

The four legged robot stands before the bedlike thing to guard it and the other shoots another bolt again at the oracle.
Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 111d8 ⇒ 2
Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 201d4 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 151d4 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
But all his attacks fail to hit.

Loading the splinters into his weapon, Uran once again takes aim and fires at the robot.

Attack-ranged touch: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7 Adamantine bullet

Vanya drops her bow, draws her sword and moves next to Aelden and takes full defense position.
hoping to provide flanking for Gregory next round

Seeing the others attacks hardly affect the being, Aurora redoubles her efforts and blasts the metal creature again.

jolt: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 3 + 1 = 22
electricity: 1d3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5

"Coulda been a farmer, but noooo..." Aelden swings again.

Att: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 1 = 22 DMG: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

He grins darkly as his sword clangs against the robot, throwing a shower of sparks about the melee.

The robot hovers closer and the gun swivels around targeting aurora.
sonicboom: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 6 - 2 = 131d8 ⇒ 8 8 nonlethal DC 11 to resist fatigued
His claws still try to gouge Aelden
claws: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 141d4 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
claws: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 211d4 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8 8 damage lethal for aeldan

Once again, Gregory continues to frantically hack at the robot.

MW Greatsword: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 = 18, for 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 1) + 6 = 10 damage.

21 is a miss. I am effective AC22 vs robots.

Not sure if it is my turn to go again or not...

Robot... rest.
Unfort Gregorys swing clangs of the armour.

Vanya takes a step the the robot's side flanking with Gregory and remains in total defense position.

Just as an FYI, if you total defense, you don't count as threatening, and therefore do not flank.

Feeling the robot's attack pass by her head by the narrowest of margins, Aurora feels her hair get ruffled. Her eyes narrow and she grits her teeth, leveling her staff and firing another blast.

jolt: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 3 + 1 = 24
crit confirm (v touch): 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 1 = 12
electricity: 1d3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 + 1 = 6
crit damage (electricity): 1d3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5

Nobody messes with my hair!

Gregory winces as he sees another well-placed bolt of electricity crackle past him to impact on the robot, wreaking havoc.

"Good shooting!"

Feeling that her bolt manages to hit just the right spot Aurora lets out a cry of anger, but it is lessened seeing black smoke pouring out from the machine. Its movements become quite erratic and it is clear it has little fight left in it. But it´s pro... am his will let´s it continue the fight. It is stunned for one round and lying on the floor.

Aha, so no total defense any more...

"Whoa. That was even better than I was expecting!"

Gregory takes advantage of the fact that the construct has been temporary rendered inert, and attempts to make the job more permanent.

MW Greatsword: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 + 4 = 23, for 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (6, 3) + 6 = 15 damage.

Uran moves to get a better shot at the prone robot.

Attack-ranged: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6 Adamantine bullet

With those two attacks the robots completly breaks down.
But suddenly the other moves forward in a burst of speed attacking Gregory.
Charge: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 201d4 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 91d6 ⇒ 4 Gregory feels the claw rake into him and suddenly everything gets hazy. 1 int damage

"Thaaaat... issss... unpleaaaasant."

Gregory takes a swing at the new threat.

MW Greatsword: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12, for 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 4) + 6 = 15 damage.

"Hair looking better, 'Rora-girl! And that's a fact!" Aelden roars as he moves to attack the next robot.

I can't tell from the map which is which.

Att: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 1 = 24 Dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

A grin flashes over the sorceress' face at Aelden's comment

If I wasn't so busy destroying these robots I was sure we brought you along to fend off, I'd zap you for your impertinence about my hair!

she spins the staff in her hands and drops it in to position aimed at the new threat

jolt v touch: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 3 + 1 = 14
electricity: 1d3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 + 1 = 6

Lining up another shot, Uran fires at the new robot threat.

Attack-ranged touch: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 2 (Adamantine bullet)

Confirm crit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
crit damage: 3d8 ⇒ (7, 5, 5) = 17

With a well placed Hit Uran manages to destroy the robot brain of the robot bringing it to an instnant standstill.

"Well done!"

With a sigh of relief, Gregory begins to cautiously search the room.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25.

They seemed to be protecting that bed over there...could someone with more armor than me perhaps chance a look?

Aurora asks coyly...

Gregory finds in a cupboard a couple of strange items and a few more recent ones with the same scrounged tec look as you got from Bhaines daughter.

How many items? We can try to identify them, after all :-)

A strange box with a red button and a green little display, a strange pistol like item with a needle as muzzle, a brown strange well rounded gun, two canisters with a strange symbol of 3 quarterdisks, and 2 clear flasks of unknown material with a green liquid inside
In another heap you find 2 potions of cure light wounds , scroll of
detect radiation, scroll of technomancy, scroll of unseen
servant, wand of magic missile (CL 3rd, 44 charges), acid (2);
amwk dagger, amulet of natural armor +1,antitoxin, everburning torch, a bedroll,flint and steel, a mwk backpack, rations for 5 days, a waterskin, a winter blanket, 52 gp, 4 sp, 3 cp

Uran reloads his rifle with regular shot, keeping the last 3 adamantine shards for a 'special' occasion.

Knowledge(Engineering) - Strange Box: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8.
Knowledge(Engineering) - Needle Gun: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19.
Knowledge(Engineering) - Brown Gun: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19.
Knowledge(Engineering) - Canisters: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18.
Knowledge(Engineering) - Flasks: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16.

Gregory shrugs.

"I am not really sure what we are looking at... Vanya? Do you have any idea?"

"Wha..? Ha..?" Aelden stammers as he looks down on the hated robots. "Oh. Right lass, I'm on it!" He wanders over the bed, being careful not to touch anything.

"Nice hair..."
